Having lost a beloved family member to ovarian cancer, I understand why it is so deadly. It usually has no symptoms until a very late stage. I also have two friends who survived it because it was found early only because doctors were checking for something else.

God bless Chris Evert. May she achieve full recovery and enjoy many more years of good health.

Here is the test you can ask for. Insurance may not pay for it early on unless you have relatives with issue or genetics

Inhibin A and B

It’s not the most common test ordered but just do it. It doesn’t mean you will have cancer but it means you better be paying attention that something might be wrong.

Also if it runs in the family get yearly ultrasounds. they aren’t very expensive.
